We've connected with so many distance learners during the past year that we've decided to offer a Zoom only format so you can continue to learn with us and your new stitching friends. Starting in Sept 2021, we've added this Zoom Canvas Embellishment Workshop with Paula twice a month. Bring one canvas per session and Paula will provide stitch and thread suggestions. You will be able to send photos of your canvas and stitch progress to Paula via text or email during class. Watch your email for her Zoom invitation to join your class session - we look forward to seeing you all!

Choose your canvas from any of the three designs from this designer (ASIT475 Wild Flowers, ASIT473 Tall Flowers I or ASIT474 Tall Flowers II).

Join us to learn how to finish your leaves for the Needlepoint Now Layers of Leaves project! We will send you a list of materials and supplies to bring to class. Sara and our finisher will be here to demonstrate how to finish your leaves on your own. Please call shop to register 651-457-4969.

This is a stitching and community connection partnership with Needlepoint Now that begins with their Jan/Feb 2023 issue of the magazine with new stitch charts appearing in each issue throughout 2023 (six issues). This project has captivated stitchers across the country and we are pleased to be a participating shop! If you are interested in getting more information, please reach out to us. You will need a subscription to Needlepoint Now for the entire year - let us know if you'd like to order your magazine through the shop or on your own. You can also choose your own colorway - Spring, Autumn, Christmas or colors to match your home decor. We will schedule regular gathering days and times in the shop with Sara to help you plan your wreath, choose your thread palette and answer questions about any of the decorative stitches. We will update this space as more details are revealed - including help on how to self-finish the leaves and assemble your wreath.

Relax and stitch on your own canvas in the company of other stitchers. Jill will be on hand to answer questions about basic needlepoint, suggest stitches and threads for 2-3 areas in your canvas, show you how to add beads to your canvas or how to follow a decorative stitch chart.

Cost: $ 25.00
